Kyle Kuzma to Start First Game with Bucks Against 76ers

The Milwaukee Bucks have acquired Kyle Kuzma from the Washington Wizards ahead of the 2025 NBA trade deadline, enhancing their roster as they aim for a deep playoff run. Kuzma, who made his debut against the Hawks with 12 points and seven rebounds, will start at power forward in place of the injured Giannis Antetokounmpo in the upcoming game against the 76ers. The addition of Kuzma is seen as a significant boost to the Bucks' scoring and versatility, complementing stars like Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard. For the Wizards, the trade marks a step toward rebuilding and developing younger talent. Overall, this move solidifies Milwaukee's status as a top contender in the Eastern Conference. Kuzma's performance will be closely monitored as he adjusts to his new team.
